Enjoy this 2h30-street food tasting tour into one of the most enchanting and magic cities of the Southern Italy. Walk into the old town and taste the best local street food. Be impressed by the taste of the "rustico", soft puff pastry disc filled with mozzarella, tomato and bechamel, the flavour of local cheese, the crunchy tarallini, the "pasticciotto" freshly baked: a short pastry stuffed with custard and even more!
See the jewels of Baroque architecture like Basilica of Santa Croce and Piazza Sant'Oronzo with the "Sedile", the old city Hall. Let yourself be attracted by the soft atmosphere in Piazza Duomo.
This tour is the perfect formula to join a visit to the city to tasting of local specialties!

Wow! What an experience ! This tour was incredible. Not only we ate SO MUCH, but we learned incredible information about the city. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and patient , specially since we had our little baby with us. We learned not only about history, but food history. Thanks a lot for everything.

Lovely relaxed pace; everyone keeps up. Toilets en route. Super friendly; nice chats with other guests. Our guide, Antonella, made contact pre-tour to give extra access information. Special dietary requirements may be accommodated if mentioned early enough.

Our tour guide provided a great historical overview of Lecce. The food stops were typical and not super impressive compared to another food tour we took in Bari for the same price. We appreciated that the guide called and helped us when we were at the wrong meeting point.
